Veal with tuna mayonnaise and bean and rocket salad

Ingredients

200 ml olive oil

2 tbsp finely chopped thyme leaves

1 garlic clove, finely chopped

1 lemon, finely grated rind and juice only

8 veal scalopine (about 125gm each)

30 gm salted baby capers, rinsed and drained

Tuna mayonnaise

95 gm canned tuna in oil, drained

2 egg yolks

1 garlic clove, finely chopped

150 ml olive oil

Bean and rocket salad

200 gm baby beans

80 gm wild rocket

½ cup coarsely torn flat-leaf parsley

60 ml (¼ cup) olive oil

1 tbsp red wine vinegar

Method

Main

1

Combine olive oil, thyme, garlic, lemon rind and juice in a non-reactive container and season to taste. Add veal, turn to coat evenly in marinade and set aside.

2

Meanwhile for tuna mayonnaise, process tuna, egg yolks and garlic in a food processor until smooth. With motor running, add olive oil in a thin steady stream and process until emulsified. Add lemon rind and juice, season to taste and process again to combine.

3

For bean and rocket salad, blanch beans (1-2 minutes), then refresh. Drain, toss with remaining ingredients and season to taste.

4

Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat, add veal in a single layer and cook, turning once, until brown (1-2 minutes on each side), then transfer to serving plates. Add capers to pan and cook until crisp (1-2 minutes), then spoon over veal. Serve immediately with bean and rocket salad and tuna mayonnaise.
